Tony Filbin, the former managing director of L&G's workplace pensions business, has joined pensions trustee firm Capital Cranfield as it takes on more work for defined-contribution pensions clients.

Capital Cranfield is one of a growing number of firms that offer professional trustees to take on oversight roles on the boards of UK pension funds. According to figures from the UK's Pensions Regulator, 44% of the biggest funds have independents on their boards.
